What's your setup? I've always had tons of luck with EVGA PSUs.
My ED-machine? A mix'n'match stock "multimedia" Acer except for GPU which I replaced and that now-dead PSU which was required due the GPU.
Oh dear - sorry to hear that.
Are you sure it's dead? Sometimes connectors and power buttons die before the PSU itself. Sometimes just loading it with a fan and jumpering a start can resurrect them before putting a big draw back on them. Sometimes it's just a blown cap. Don't go messing with the inside though unless you really know what you are doing.

Could be the internal fuse just tripped. Unplug it from the mains supply, wait a minute then try again

Well, if it's just a fuse it burned, didn't yet check that. The machine just died while I was messing with some bounty hunting. PSU doesn't even spin up the fan now ...
edit: well, I be damned... THANKS GUYS for making me check the cabling. Somehow the wall plug had managed to come so loose it lost connection XD... Phew.
Some mod? Close this
... problem solved. And I was just about to have a bit of nerd rage fit XD

Yeah, It's not just that if the processor goes or memory on some boards the PSU will stop. Jumper block on the ATX connector will show if the PSU is working.
OP.. How do you know it's the PSU died it fizzle out?
See just above your post. *Somehow* the wall plug got loosened over time.
This wouldn't been the first burned PSU I've had, so didn't cross my mind at all to check the cabling itself...
